Hanno KleineckeYep, that's the plan Choppa, as far as I can get my hands on the necessary kits. X 1 A & B, as well as the D 558 / 2 Skyrocket are already waiting. There will be a F 104 in NASA markings too.
Let's see how far I can get... 😉
Thanks for the link ! Man I really love these old Technicolor US propaganda films !
This one's worth watching too :Youtube Video

Hanno KleineckeThanks Kerry, that was in fact the decisive question, when I talked about the project with Bernhard earlier on, who was able to lay his hands on one of the surviving X 15 in an US museum, . The skin of the X 15 was made of a special alloy called Inconel X, which is responsible for the metaly looking colour of the skin. The bird actually was unpainted.
So I´m going to use a dark grey mixed with Metal pigments in different shades and intensities.
The lighter panels will be masked and sprayed with very thin coats of Alclad Pale Burnt Metal mixed with
Stainless Steel.
Choppa : Indeed the mother of all eggs - planes (((( 😄)))). Lots of funnies around in those days.

Kerry COXHanno, Hi buddy. 🙂
I saw the images posted here and I did notice the different colourations of the segments of the skin, and I thought that you will have an amazing model with all that effect, for sure. 🙂 👍

Hanno KleineckeX 15 finished. Unfortunately the decals show some silvering, despite the fact that I used Mr. Mark Setter quite meticiously..... Well, anyway, I hope you like it . 🙂

Kerry COXHanno, I am sure there would be a lot of senior USAF personnel who would leap at the opportunity to have your work either on their desk or in their display cabinet.
The overall 'effect' is stunning my friend and I am positive there will be some well earned awards yet to come.
Superb result. 🙂 👍
